In January of this year we were excited to once again discover that we were going to have a baby! We felt so blessed and even more excited than before, and also worried because of the previous pregnancy. But this time I felt different. Sick to my stomach different. As not fun, as that was, it was a good sign. The entire month of February, I spent most of my days on the couch watching netflix and only cooked dinner maybe two or three times; poor Wayne had to fend for himself. I felt bad not cooking, as it was my responsibility as the loving wife. But every time I cooked a meal the smell of something that I once loved suddenly made me nauseous. Although I can't complain too much about being sick, I only ever threw up once, thank heavens!
Wayne was wonderful during that time(and always is wonderful). He was always willing to drive to the store for something that actually sounded appetizing to me. I could only eat a few things for a short period of time before my stomach wanted something else. Wayne would hand wash all the dishes, clean the apartment, and go to school full time. How could I be so lucky? Isn't he just perfect? I think so. When March
finally arrived I began to feel much more like my old self.
With March now here, that meant it was time for our first prenatal appointment. It was then when we got to see our baby and hear the heart beat for the first time. We were so excited. This time there was a living baby in me!
